Poor connection at PCM-Inspect harness connectors
for backed out terminals, improper mating, broken
locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals, and
poor terminal to wire connection.

Damaged harness-Inspect the wiring harness for
damage. If the harness appears to be OK, observe the
moving connectors and wiring harnesses related to the
sensor.
A change in the display will indicate the location of the
fault. If DTC P1311 cannot be duplicated, the
information included in the Failure Records data can be
useful in determining vehicle mileage since the DTC
was last set.

If it is determined that the DTC occurs intermittently,
performing the DTC P1311 Diagnostic Chart may
isolate the cause of the fault.

Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
P1312 ION Sensing Module SEC Line 2 Circuit Fault
060R200068
Circuit Description

The Power Control Module (PCM) will compare the
secondary current reading to predetermined maximum
and minimum thresholds.
If the secondary current signal pulse width is out of
the predetermined range, the fail counter will be
incremented. If the fail counter exceeds the
calibration, then the PCM is complete and a failure
will be reported. If the sample counter threshold is
reached before the failure threshold, then the PCM is
complete and pass will be reported.
This PCM will detect an open/short circuit in the
secondary current sense input circuit, misfire on the
entire bank for the secondary current sense input
circuit, coil failure, and same internal Ignition Current
Sense System (ICSS) module faults.
Conditions for setting the DTC

Ignition voltage is between 10volt and 16 volts.

MAP sensor signal is between 26kPa and 100 kPa.

Fuel level is more than 19%.

Engine speed is between 650rpm and 6500rpm.

ION Sensing Module circuit is open or shorted signals
on the SEC 2 line.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The PCM will illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp
(MIL) the first time the fault is detected.

The PCM calculates an air flow value based on idle air
control valve position, throttle position, RPM and
barometric pressure.

The PCM will store conditions which were present
when the DTC was set as Freeze Frame and in the
Failure Records data.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

The PCM will turn the MIL ªOFFº on the third
consecutive trip cycle during which the diagnostic has
been run and the fault condition is no longer present.

A history DTC P1312 will clear after 40 consecutive trip
cycles during which the warm up cycles have occurred
without a fault.

DTC P1312 can be cleared using the Tech 2 ªClear
Infoº function or by disconnecting the PCM battery
feed.
Diagnostic Aids
An intermittent may be caused by the following:

Poor connections.

Misrouted harness.

Rubbed through wire insulation.

Broken wire inside the insulation.
Check for the following conditions:

P1326 ION Sensing Module Combustion Quality Input Circuit Fault
060R200068
Circuit Description
The Power Control Module (PCM) checks the validity of
the signals used in the ION Sensing module at the
following engine operating conditions.

The test is performed to evacuate the Combustion
Quality (CQ) signal pulse width if it is within a
predetermined range. If the CQ signal pulse width is
out of the predetermined range, the fail counter will be
incremented. If the failure counter exceeds the
calibration, then test is complete and a failure will be
reported. If the sample counter threshold is reached
before the failure threshold, then the test is complete
and a pass will be reported. This test will detect an
open/short in the CQ line circuit, ION Sensing module
faults and analog input faults in the PCM.
Conditions for setting the DTC

Ignition voltage is between 10volt and 16 volts.

No Crank DTCs set.

No cylinder ID DTCs set.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The PCM will illuminate the malfunction indicator lamp
